  • 2011 Political Contributions
    2011 POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS 2011 Lilly Political Contributions 2 Government actions such as price controls, pharmaceutical manufacturer rebates, the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA), and access to Lilly medicines affect our ability to invest in innovation. Lilly has a comprehensive government relations operation to have a voice in the public policymaking process at both the state and federal levels. Lilly is committed to participating in the political process as a responsible corporate citizen to help inform the U.S. debate over health care and pharmaceutical innovation. As a company that operates in a highly competitive and regulated industry, Lilly must participate in the political process to fulfill its fiduciary responsibility to its shareholders, and its overall responsibilities to its customers and its employees. Corporate Political Contribution Elected officials, no matter what level, have an impact on public policy issues affecting Lilly. We are committed to backing candidates who support public policies that contribute to pharmaceutical innovation and healthy patients. A number of factors are considered when reviewing candidates for support. The following evaluation criteria are used to allocate political contributions: • Has the candidate historically voted or announced positions on issues of importance to Lilly, such as pharmaceutical innovation and health care? • Has the candidate demonstrated leadership on key committees of importance to our business? • Does the candidate demonstrate potential for legislative leadership?

  • Verizon Political Contributions January – December 2010 Verizon Political Contributions January – December 2010 2
    VERIZON POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS JANUARY – DECEMBER 2010 Verizon Political Contributions January – December 2010 2 A Message from Tom Tauke Verizon is affected by a wide variety of government policies — from telecommunications regulation to taxation to health care and more — that have an enormous impact on the business climate in which we operate. We owe it to our shareowners, employees and customers to advocate public policies that will enable us to compete fairly and freely in the marketplace. Political contributions are one way we support the democratic electoral process and participate in the policy dialogue. Our employees have established political action committees at the federal level and in 25 states. These political action committees (PACs) allow employees to pool their resources to support candidates for office who generally support the public policies our employees advocate. This report lists all PAC contributions and corporate political contributions made by Verizon in 2010. The contribution process is overseen by the Corporate Governance and Policy Committee of our Board of Directors, which receives a comprehensive report and briefing on these activities at least annually. We intend to update this voluntary disclosure twice a year and publish it on our corporate website. We believe this transparency with respect to our political spending is in keeping with our commitment to good corporate governance and a further sign of our responsiveness to the interests of our shareowners. Thomas J. Tauke Executive Vice President Public
